What affects the ability to learn English?

Friday, June 12th, 2009

Not everyone can learn English quickly. Certain factors should be taken into consideration when setting up programs to help people learn English. We consider that native language of the learner. Since some languages are closer to the roots of English than others, we also assess the native language of the learner. Apart from that, you also have previous exposure to English. If a learner has never been taught the basics of the language, it goes without saying the course should start at the very basics. It is also however, important to help a person learn English at an advanced level if he or she already knows the basics. This sets our programs apart since the learner starts at the skills level where he or she is comfortable and can work from there. This makes progress quick ensuring a positive learning experience.

Help your workers to learn English for the workplace by enrolling them in the Basic English courses presented through Triple e. We provide the courses to help attendees learn English for the workplace entailing oral and written communication. The ABET courses are presented at the premises of the employer at a pre-arranged time schedule that keeps the work hours and shifts of employees in mind. The courses are presented on NQF levels one to four and the attendee obtains certification that is recognized throughout South Africa for each level successfully completed. An assessment is made of the skills level of the attendee prior to enrolment to ensure that the course material and level of instruction are in line with the skills set of the attendee.

 

Learn English Writing

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

When two equally intelligent, experienced, reliable employees compete for the same position, gaining power, reputation, and a higher salary, the one who has taken initiative to learn English writing probably will win the promotion.

Many business leaders readily admit that originality and initiative help workers advance, but the ability to express ideas clearly in English writing truly distinguishes an employee. Although English writing is slightly more difficult than spoken English, modern technology and constant practice help second language learners quickly build skill with English writing.

In addition, experienced teachers readily point out that second language learners need not suffer as they learn English writing. Nothing has more reflective influence on English writing than reading; therefore, reading wonderful and intelligent books creates the most influential impact on language acquisition. The mastery of English writing ultimately empowers once disadvantaged South Africans to create a literature all their own.

 

Why let your employees learn English?

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

If your employees are struggling to communicate in the business world because they lack English communication skills then it may be time to let them learn English. English is the language used in restaurants, high level negotiations, customer service, tourism, communication with international companies and most often also the workplace. Employees struggling with the language will be able to learn English at their skills level. As such an assessment is first done to determine the person’s grasp of the language. Previous education is also considered. The courses are structured to help the person not only to learn English for conversation, but also to help the learners read documents, articles, notices, and more. The information must also be understood and applied. English grammar and writing are also dealt with. Certification is provided for each NQF level passed.

 

Factors affecting adults learning English

Wednesday, January 21st, 2009

There are numerous factors that affect adults learning English. The first factor is that of native tongue. Some languages are related to English and others not at all. The native tongue will thus determine how easy the comprehension of the English language will be. It is for this reason that we have assessments to determine the learner’s skills level, native tongue, and educational background first. We then start the program at the level where they can work and learn with confidence. Another factor that affects adults learning English is that of educational background. Learners with no prior education will naturally take a bit longer to build literacy skills and will thus require a program suitable for their way of learning. Fortunately we meet every person learning English at his or her level of comprehension and educational background.
